Abstract
A novel lectin has been purified from the fruiting bodies of the mushroom, Fomitella fraxinea, which belongs to bracket fungi by a combination of ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and gel filtration chromatography on Sephacryl S-200 HR. The lectin, designated as FFrL, was a homotetrametric protein with a molecular weight of 50 kDa as demonstrated by SDS-PAGE (sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) and MALDI-TOF-MS(matrix assisted UV laser desorption/ionization time-of flight mass spectrometry).
